No.  A note here is that gnus previously used to bitch and complain
for quite a while on startup (or if I typed 'b' (bogus groups stuff))
with some error messages I can't quite remember, but which indicated
some garbage at end of command on the server's end.

I think it was related to strangely named public folders.  I have now
migrated to a new exchange server (still 2003), and it does not have
lots and lots of strange public folders, and it works just fine.

(They didn't migrate my emails, though, so I'd still like to reach the
old server, but using offlineimap and friends, it's not such a big
deal anymore.)
